Plus, i have down the latest bombshell in the Lieutenant General flynn sentencing. S the judge is now demanding answers over some extraordinarily sketchy evidence for Robert Muellers office. Rm we also have new evidence of Hillary Clintons bought and paid for dossier in the clinton investigation is being investigated by the fbi. Tonight, well update you on the battle over the border wall and difunding. Why a Government Shutdown is not something you have to fear. Stay tuned, part two of my oneonone interview with the First Lady Melania Trump just minutes away. We start with a really important, in many ways, sad, breaking news opening monologue. So igh will go through this slowly. What im going to reveal to you, doesnt matter where you stand in the political spectrum. It should shock every american to their core. Lets start at the beginning. On january 24th, 2017, that is the first week of Donald Trumps presidency. Thendeputy fbi director Andrew Mccabe called then a quickly turned into a casual request that he speak with fbi agents about his overseas communications, which we now now were surveilled by federal officials. Remember, flynn was the Incoming National security advisor. It would not be unusual for him to have discussions with foreign leaders and soontobe counterparts. What is unusual is this. We know flynns surveillance, the unmasking, the lack of minimization of his name, and kithe leaking of halogens by the outgoing administration, the Obama Administration, is beyond rare, elicited in terms of its actions, in other words, a crim. Having, capping the nothing wrong himself, he agreed to the meeting the various time day at the white house. He agreed to have any lawyers present. Mccabe literally told the general general flynn, a lawyer was not necessary. Mccabe told him this. During the meeting, flynn was casually questioned by two fbi agents, including, there he is, peter strzok. You know, the guy that loathed donald trump, the man is that Hillary Clinton should win 100 million to zero, the man with the insurance policy and the media leak strategy against the new president. Should he happen to them, the guy that was ultimately fired because of extreme antitrumped bias. According to the fbis report of the meeting, that is known as a 302, where they discussed the meeting with someone they talk to. Its called the 302. Agents did not come on purpose, one general plan about any potential crimes. They didnt ask him to explain or clarify any inconsistencies in his answers, and because they wanted him to be relaxed, this is, by its very definition, a perjury trap. You dont tell somebody you really are investigating, lets put them in a relaxed position, let them talk to us and then, by the way, you dont need a lawyer. As we speak, Lieutenant GeneralMichael Flynns life, it has been on hold for a long time. Hes awaiting sentencing for allegedly lying to investigators during that meeting. A meetingg. So unusual that even fired fbi director james comey himself has now admitted was not standard operating procedure. He actually this is the sickest part of it bragged that he ordered it anyway because he thought he could get away with it. This is what we have been telling you. Abuse of power, corruption, not rank and file fbi, the highest levels of the fbi and the doj, it shows you this, week one of the trump administration, the fix was in from day one. Watch those. You look look at this whitee now, its hard to imagine two fbi agents ending up in the room. How did that happen . I sent them. Something i probably wouldnt may be gotten away with in a more organized investigation, more organized administration, and the george w. Bush of administration, for example, or the Obama Administration. The protocol, two mind that all of us have increased appreciation for over the last two years. [applause] in both of those administrations, there is process. If the fbi wanted to send agents into the H White House itself, o interview a senior official, you would work through their ndwhite House Counsel and there would be discussions and approvals of who would be there. I thought, its early enough, lets just send a couple guys over. Sean i wouldnt have tried, i wouldnt have gotten away with this in a prior w administration. Really . This is week one of the trump presidency. Isnt the name of jim comeys book a higher loyalty . Wouldnt that be to the United States constitution, the rule of law, equal justice under the law . Does not sound like a virtuous Public Servant to you, or someone trying to trap Lieutenant GeneralMichael Flynn from day one . This is how these corrupt officials, again, not rank and file, treated a duly elected president. His first week in office. 8 30 3year three star veteran hero,e five years in combat. Here we have james comey, fired for mishandling the current investigation, he, too, wanted hillary to win. Andrew mccabe, he said of the meeting on the phone and said, d you dont need a lawyer, fired by the fbi for lying. One of the agents, meeting with flynn, peter strzok. Of course, fired for his rampant antitrump bias. In other words, the three main people initially involved in the flynn have been fired. Think about that. One day after learning about the j. D. Interrogation tactics from the fbi, well, there is a judge, u. S. District judge named emmet sullivan. He has now ordered to the special counsel to turn over all of the governments documents related to this questioning of general flynn. By the way, by tomorrow. A rare move from a federal judge, which brings us to a shocking new development. The federalist pointed out something brilliant, whichou cod be a major bombshell inside the flynn a sentencing memo, they pointed out footnote 23. Footnote 23 references the 302 memo of august 22nd, 2017. Flynns interview was in januare presidency. Flynns interview happened way back when. Heres the problem. Flynns interview with the fbi on january 24th, 2017, the 302s 302 is written seven months later . A text message messages for peter strzok and lisa page, they seem to reference flynns interview, his 30 to be completedom on february 14th. Meanwhile, james comey, he references readingin this 302 before he was fired in may. So the question remains, why was a new 302 drafted in august by the special counsel . What information had changed . Can itit be trusted . Was there an earlier 302 memo . Where there were visions . Is there a smoking gun here . Either way, we deserve answers. Tomorrow, by 3 00 p. M. , u. S. Mike judge Emmett Sullivan could have the answers to all of these questions. That is how long he has given to turn over these documents related to the questioning of Lieutenant GeneralMichael Flynn. This is the same i judge to dismiss the corruption conviction, eight convictions, of republican senator ted stevens after discovering rampant misconduct from federal prosecutors in that case, including what he called a plaintiffs attempt to withhold exculpatory evidence. Now, weve pointed out, important to know, the lead prosecutor in the special counsel investigation, muellers pitbull, Andrew Weissmann. We talked a lot about him, and jeannie rae, who worked for the clinton foundation. Andrew weissmann innhe particul, the federal, quite a track record with exculpatory evidence. In the case of andersen accounting, they overturned weissmanns prosecution 903 does not happen that often prayed in the case of four Merrill Lynch executives, the Circuit Court of appeals overturned that become a whole year of their life gone after weissmann was rebuked for what . Withholding exculpatory evidence. Why would mueller hire that guy . Tonight, whatever happens in the case of Lieutenant GeneralMichael Flynn, the damage is done. Legal bills have caused this mae his home, wrecked his finances, destroyed his impeccable reputation, 33 years in the military, five years of combat duty, tours in iraq and afghanistan. Heres our question tonight. As is how we are going to treat american servicemen and women, war heroes . If it is, nobody is safe. This is not how a fair Justice System is supposed to operate in a constitutional republic. Instead, this is the sad part to me, everything we have been telling you about, for nearly two years, we are facing a two tiered Justice System or anybody apparently associated with trump will be targeted. Democrats, they seem to always get offo scotfree. That of course includes Hillary Clinton. Breaking today, we learn to some new information about her bought and paid for dirty dossier. Thess law firm that hired christopher steele, the law firm actually funneled money to the fusion gps, the Oppo Research group, to put the cd document together. That was perkins coie. They considered using he consider using, christopher steele, the findings to challenge a 2016 Election Results in court. That is why he was doing it, which makes yet another way Hillary Clinton was planning to use the dirty dossier directly election after the election should she lose. Of course, this was all done with her money funneled through the lawle firm is a legal eventc not a political expense. Sounds Like Campaign finance issues. A lot off people in the media ae interested in that topic, but not with hillary. No investigation into that Campaign Finance violation. Av the question we all have to ask ourselves as wide. It should be obvious. Her last name is not trump. She is not anyone who supports trump. She has a whole different Justice System, one that Trump Supporters dont have. Well have a lot more in this later. Also, once again, democrats continuing to play politics with our nation security. President trump is standing strong, calling out the far left border hypocrisy. Watch this. Speak of the fact is, they have always supported fences and wals and partitions, but you know what . They only dont want to do it because of me. We need to have the wall. We need border security. Whatever it takes to get border security, i will do it. Weve done a really fantastic job with what we have. We can do it almost perfect job if we have the wall and proper border security, and that is what were going to do for the American People. Sean its really stunning. Democrats say they want border security, sounded like donald trump in the obama years, when it comes to making it happen, the stone wall, develop, distract. Reveal their true open borders agenda. Now despite overwhelming evidence that walls actually work, this week some of the department of Homeland Security released new details on the progress that we have made since President Trump got to officeen and the bird barriers in california, texas, explaining that eisner november 24th, customs and Border Protection have constructed more than 31 of that werees authorized. The remaining miles scheduled soon, adding that the bottom t line walls work. Comes to stopping drugs, illegal aliens, border walls are proving extremely effective. Take a look at the beforeandafter photos from the dhs of the border. You can see southern california. While those are encouraging results, a lot more to do. By the president is forging ahead with his demand for 5 billion to fully secure our countrys National Security issues, make people safe. We learned about the horrible tragedy, 7yearold girl in guatemala died of dehydration teafter crossing into the u. S. Illegally with her father and the remote new mexico desert. Its like i have been saying over and over again. A wall can prevent these types of heartbreaking stories once people know they cant get in. They are not going to come. Its a treacherous journey. Dangerous. They ran out of food and water apparently four days before she crashed into this country. The tragedy that can be avoided. Also an issue of national tysecurity. We are learning a suspected terrorist is the one leading the group of Central American migrants demanding 50 grand in reparations from the u. S. , each, to return home. His name is alfonso guerrero, expected of the 1987 bombing in honduras that 106 american soldiers. If i have said many times, most people come here because they want more opportunity for themselves and family but the wall with a big door is the way to do it, well do it legally for everybody. They want a better life. Even if Illegal Immigrants with the best of intentions, comes at a major cost to you, the taxpayer. Look at this recent study, for each illegal immigrant that does successfully cross the border, it costs you, the American People, 70 grand per year. We must have the ability to affect anyone that comes in for our security, and now more than ever, we need a border wall. Comments and strategy actually works, the safety and security of the American People should top priority for any egu. S. President. Let the media scare you about a Government Shutdown. Most of the government does not shutdown. Including health, safety, and thety Postal Service will stay open and yes, grandma and grandpa will get their Social Security checks. I will tell you one other thing. I will support anyone that is furloughed. They should get their full back pay. Y. They should not be victims of ldwhat is a serious, important battle over our National Security. This holiday season, so manynd servicemen and women away from theirli families, protecting our freedoms every day, keeping us safe, First Lady Melania Trump took some time to visit those soldiers. I was lucky enough to catch up with her aboard the uss george h. W. Bush. Well give you a preview of part two of that interview. Tucker even your young son has been brought into this at times. That is n not that would make me angry. Does that make you angry . It does make me angry because children should be off limits. I protect them and i want to give him a normal life as possible. This is not a normal life, but alive to protect them, and giving him the child he deserves. Sean is about something we can all agree with . Will have particle moments away. Joining us now, Lieutenant General flynn news, the hills john solomon, Fox News Contributor sara carter, fox news legal analyst, author of the russian hoax, gregg jarrett. Gregg, let me start with you. I think well book with the federalist did a good job because those Text Messages refer to a different 302. I hear about a different 302 that james comey told trey gowdy that he likely h read. Seven month gap between the interview and the date on the 302 . Normally, there are three dates on 30 to come the date of the interview, date of the draft, date of the supervisors signature. No more than three oh four weeks shouldee there be a gap. Seven months, he suggests, that exculpatory evidence was redacted or excluded. In other words, they falsified information and concealed other information. If you doctor or phony up a 302 and presented to a court, that is a violation of the due process of Michael Flynn. Its also arguably obstruction of justice. It looks like judge sullivan, who initially ordered ten months ago to hand over this stuff, is now ordering them again, give me those 302s by 3 00 tomorrow. This is on the eve of the sentencing. If he finds that they falsified evidence, he can throw out the guilty plea of flynn and set him free. Et sean why do i think were headed headed in that direction . Sara, the interesting thing about this judge, judge sullivan, he was so angry at the abuse of power back then in the ted stevens case, he overturned it, ted stevens career was ruined by that point but putting that aside, he ordered a special investigation into the investigators. He was so bad. 14 minute rant, as described by the New York Times as brutalizing the people that prosecutor ted stevens. Absolutely, sean. Ted stevens is a perfect example of why judge sullivan now is sitting at overseeing the flynn case is so important. One of the things that gregg said is really important is that gap, the timeline, the seven months. It should not be three or four weeks. That is only in extenuating circumstances when an fbi agente is out of the field, interviewing someone any region where they cant have access to a computer. In a case such as this, with such highprofile, i spoke to multiple i dont want to say but multiple former seem senior fbi officials that said it has to be within five days. Within five days per recollection. That way, they can go back to their notes, they have a full recall c of what happened during that interview. So why judge sullivan needs to ask for is the work flow chart. That workflow chart will show everything. Not just the 302s but the workflow chart. That will show who approved it, who it was sent to, and the data that the notes were put into th. System come into the fbi system. Once they have that, i think theyll have the answer is. Sean john, what it shows more than anything, this was week one. Mccabese. Actions, Peter Strzoks actions, comeys actions. Comeys immersion, we bought into this in the Obama Administration, or the bush administration. Thisis is week one of the trump administration. They chose me it was set up by the getgo, u day one. Ive been lucky to interview most fbi directors and former fbi directors. I have never in my life heard an fbi director talk the way that director comey did on sunday night. Its not the language that fbi and Law Enforcement use. Let me Say Something else tonight about Michael Flynn. In may of 2017, there was a document identified to a small number of people in the United States government. As in the possession of the Defense Intelligence agency. For 18 months, there has been an effort to resist declassifying that document. I know that document contains extraordinary exculpatory evidence about general flynn. I dont think the president has been told about this. One lawmaker discovered it but he was thwarted by the Defense Intelligence agency, the ability disclose it. I think we all should ask for that declassification. Get that out. It may enlighten the judge, it will certainly imagine the american public. Sean i think a 33 year vet deserves a lot. We to move on. We can confirm tonight, sara carter, you have an article, Financial Experts testify, fbi is currently investigating the clinton foundation. How cometi we dont ever hear of any of these things . Whats going on . Sean, this is constant. A constant battle. John solomon originally wrote this story about these whistleblowers. They testified today on the hill to chairman mark meadows and his House Oversight and government reform o committee. They were questioned by the fbi, they turned over the information to the fbi, and under some pretty brutal questioning, one of the investigators, a financial expert, by the way, they were very straightforward with the fact that they paid for their own investigation into this. They did this with other charitable foundations in order the truth and, yes, to make money because once they expose it and give it to the irs, the irs does pay them for their investigations. They basically admitted that the fbi is actually investigating the clinton foundation. Its huge. Sean john, you got a mention today. Yeah, i like to ignore silliness. I will tell you what happens sometimes. Some people issued a statement suggesting i was an agent of russia. As i came here tonight, shawn sean by the way, everyone is an agent of russia. Hes guilty, hes laughing. Its pretty funny. Ill tell you whats not funny, on their way here, a woman stopped me on the street, angry and screaming, and tossed her tacos on me. I came in smelling like taco dip, i apologize. This sort of vitriol and silliness that goes on, we are to stay focused on the facts and what happens every day in our lives. There are so many important things we that was divulged and most of the mide are chasing things that are irrelevant. Sean last road, gregg jarrett. If you are talking about Hillary Clinton, the evidence is talready there, spent a chapter of my book talking about her. There is an internal audit on her foundation a talking about w there was quid proer quo benefi, the emails which demonstrate that bill clinton didnt just cross the line of impropriety, he demolished it, using the foundation as his own personal piggy bank, as his wife but a for sale sign on the door of her office of secretary of state. Its good that there is an fbi investigation, and there should also be a grand jury to look at. Sean i will make a prediction, 2019, going to be the year of boomerang number two. You watch. Thank you, all for you directly ahead, more on the fbis stunning mistreatment of an american hero. Lieutenant general flynn. Investigative journalist Sharyl Atkisson, congressman jim jordan come here tod respond. And then, part two of our interview with First Lady Melania Trump coming up.

Its a specialty bulb. That fits your business. Theres no place likargh e im trying. Yippiekiyay. Mom. Sean our top story, as we mentioned, Robert Muellers team on defense tonight, really serious claims. Bi the fbi pressuring general flynn to be interviewed without an attorney present. That has now got the attention of u. S. District judge emmet sullivan. Hes ordered mueller to hand over all documents related to the flynn interview by 3 00 p. M. Tomorrow, and on top of that, james comey tape boasting, we totally took advantage of the fact this is a new administration. We would not have done nice and the obama or bush years. Really . Your to discuss it more, ohio congressman jim jordan and a host of open to sinclairs full measure, Sharyl Atkisson is wih us. This is how we treat american heroes, we pray, this is something that i would not have done or gotten away with in a more organized Administration Like the Obama Administration and the bushn administration, i took full advantage. On top of the deputy fbi director telling flynn he doesnt need a lawyer or that they wanted him relaxed. Meanwhile, because of the unmasking, and leaking ever on intelligence, something sherlock gets a nose pretty much about personally, they had his direct transcript that they should not have had. Congressman. Okay, when does this and admin do these people get held accountable, instead of the people with the taxi medallions and the loan applications . Is what we have always had, we need a Second Special counsel. We can put anyone in jail, we can just try to get answers. You are so right, sean. When you say i got away with something, that tells you you did not do with the right way. You didnt follow the rules, you didnt do it the way you were supposed to. They were so focused on getting President Trump that they were g willing to set up a Lieutenant General, a guy who served our country, as you said, 33 years. That is the mostt egregious part of this. What they did to general flynn. The other thing i think is important to understand is my clan ran the Defense Intelligence agency. He had to know his conversations with Sergey Kislyak or being listened to, monitored. He had to know that. There is no reason for him toe come in and Say Something that wasntt true. He just got caught because he didnt know they were setting him up like they did. Judge sullivan demanding these documents is exactly what needs to happen. Sean the dynamic trio, comey, mccabe, and strzok, Sharyl Atkisson. You can relate to this, im sure, in your own way, especially unmasking, surveillance issues. More importantly, i cant believe this has happened in our country. I dont care where you stand on spectrum. Cal i think you are getting at what i think it is the bigger story, really, underreported in terms of how big it really is, which is, the surveillance and other alleged abuses implemented by some badme actors in the intelligence community. The problem is, im glad judge sullivan is floating around the edges of this in the flynnrt ca, but who ultimately does anything about it . Those accused, the government computer intrusions, or the things we talked about, the ones that have the prosecutorial authority. If they are not going to agree to investigate themselves and prosecute themselves and so far they havent, then where do you turn in allse this . Sean i dont know how we remedy this, between you go back to all the same characters in this. Its i. C. E. And comey writing it in exoneration before investigation. Biggest slamdunk case with the email server, not responding with a subpoena, erasing, bleach bridge. Then the fisa abuse. James comeys admission, jim jordan, they didnt fight it. He put a signature on edges by an opposition party. Committing a fraud against the fisa court. They dont even tell the judge you paid for it. It may have a political taint to it. That is not how things are supposed to work under this constitution, under our Fourth Amendment rights. You are right. He said in my deposition last week that he did not know that they had a legal duty, if there was a legal duty, to present exculpatory information to the fisa judge. Of course you have to do that. The head ofou the fbi, to say he did not know they technically had a legal duty to do that is scary. The other thing i come back to, sean, never forget the bias that exists with these key people, mccabe, comey, i. C. E. , page, remember the name to give the current investigation . Midyear exam. Something they had to get through, they knew the fix was in, going to get it taken care of, getting to the mid year exam. What was the name they gave a droprussia investigation . . Cross fire hurricane. Just the names show you the values that were there from the getgo with these top people at the fbi, who ran both investigations. Sean sharyl, you look at what they did in all of these lcases here, the same charactes are involved, the same players, the same people that had bias. They do this on week one of the trump administration. Sounds like an insurance policy to me. Sounds like a media leak strategy is comings thereafter. It sounds like an operation. Something i think we learn from comey, i thought i was someone who thought this was plowing old ground to look back at the clinton material. In light of what he said, comey said in his testimony that loretta lynch, the attorney general, should have recused herself i didnt, and was either compromised or appeared to become an object from the tarmac meeting, butt about other unnamed material. Number two, he says that he had he known about agent i. C. E. And pages Text Messages, he would not have let them stay on the investigation. Sean thats right. Le they wipe clean the phones of strzok and page when he worked for mueller. You know why i question jeannie rhee and Andrew Weissmann and mueller stories of his team, all democratic donors . This is why. Pretty disgraceful. Thank you, both. When i come back, more of my exclusive interview with melania trump. That is up next. Stay with us on hannity. It really it rocked our world. I had no idea the amount of damage that water could do. We called usaa. And they greeted me as they always do. Sergeant baker, how are you . They were on it. It was unbelievable. Having insurance is something everyone needs, but having usaa now thats a privilege. Were the bakers and were usaa members for life. Usaa. Get your insurance quote today. When the mailman delivered to the north pole . And we all had a frontrow, shouldertop seat at the parade . Lets get back there. Santas wonderland at Bass Pro Shops and now cabelas has what weve all been missing. With all kinds of crafts and activities your kids will always remember. Even a picture with santa and its all free. Thats right free. Time passes. Hold onto christmas. Sean here now as part two of my exclusive interview with the First Lady Melania Trump. I act now about the medias attacks on her own son, talking about the me too movement and much more. Sean lets talk about the media, a lot of controversy, said it was fake news. Om some of it is fake news. Do you agree . Some of it. Some of it is fake news. I would say dont believe everything that you hear and read. Not all of it, but some of it is fake news. Sean even your young son has been brought into this at times. That would make me angry. Does that make you angry . It does make me angry because children should be offlimits and i protect him and i want to keep him normal life as possible. This is not normal life, i like to protect him and give him a childhood that he deserves. Sean do you feel its working out . I have met him. He seems like a young, very respect will, happy kid. Hes very happy, hes a strong, hes tough, hes enjoying life in washington. Sean who is he more like . Divider the outward fighter, donald, or his mom . He has both qualities. Hes a fighter. Hes a soft, beautiful heart, but he is a fighter, too, and hes very strong. Sean do you find, with all the issues that your husband deals with, foreign policy, russia, china, little rocket man, using his term, all the issues with employment, regulation, energy, borders, th, wall, are you mostly in agreement on the big issues that he fights for every day . With policies,s, some of the, i agree, some, i dont. I give him my opinion. But he is the president. He was elected. Sean when all is said and done, and you now have taken a more public role, what do you want people to know about what issues matter to you the most . I know you have your be best campaign. You are seeing the military, traveling the world more than you have. What do youtr want people to knw about what is important to . As first lady . Might be best initiative is in its early stages and im very proud with what i have accomplished so far. I have three things its focusing on, children, opiate crisis, and social media use. So i traveled the country, i meet with the people, i meet with theve parents, and i want o shine a spotlight on those organizations and programs that support children and want to bes the best for them to grow up and responsible adults. Sean on borders in particular, you did go down to the border and met with a lot of Border Patrol guys ive been down there 13 times in my 23ee years at fox everywhere from the rio grande to san diego, and drug warehouses. When you are down there, and you see with your own eyes what is going on, is the wall, in your head,ad the only answer . The wall toe need protect the country. Sean the security. The security. Protected from the drugs. Of course, we know we will always have people coming over. But this is one solution that we could stop a big caravan coming over. And i was at the border firsthand and met with Border Patrol and i see what they do 24 7, and their hands are full. Sean we sell rocks and bottles being pelted at them. Correct. Sean they tried to crash the southern border of mexico. You recently spoke out about the me too movement. We saw what happened with Justice Kavanaugh and his confirmation hearing. To me, it is so overthetop. But you also said, yes, we should take it seriously. Listen to women. But then you talked about due process and the presumption of innocence. Ti do you feel like thats missing in this movement . I think we should all be heard. Women andd men. We needd to be heard and we need to be treated equal. Sean remember every time before we ever heard from some of the individuals in the Justice Kavanaugh case, you hear people say, i believe. We hadnt heard from anybody. You can believe until you are proven guilty. You cannot be guilty until you are proven guilty. And that is very important that we follow the law. Sean i want to talk about your journey a little more. We kind of glossed over it. You grew up in a small town in slovenia, then you are a model in milan and paris, you are independent, alone at that time. Correct. Sean did you grow up wanting to be a model . I studied design and architecture and stopped my study, architecture, because i wanted to go in the modeling business and professional career as a model. So i moved to milan and paris. Sean w how young where you . I started modeling in sylvania first when i was 16. Then i went to milan and started from then on. Sean were you with your parents . So you grew up fast at a young age, independent of a young age. Yes. Sean as he looked back on that, your journey from paris and milan to new york, did thatt says, they are competent, a good friend, and true to yourself . Yes. My journey made me that. Sean madame first lady, thank you so much. Thank you. Sean when we come back, you wont believe this, the Mainstream Media is reacting negatively to my interview with the first lady. They cannot help themselves. It is pathetic. Joe concha, Rachel Campos duffy when we come back, straight ahead. Sean my interview with the first lady aired in the media predictably, sadly, pounce to criticize whatever they can come up with. This is beyond pathetic. Watch. Hears this extraordinary story of a woman who came to this country as an immigrant, as a model, is now the first lady of the United States, and you would think in her rare public appearances, that something terribly wrong has been done to her in his country. I really have been surprised by that air of grievance that carries very publicly with her. The first lady is echoing exactly with the president says. They are crying the president is crying because he doesnt like it true that its being reportedt another first lady, o at one point use to see it clear, we thought, then she is now. Sean went meanwhile, President Trump took to twitter to comment on the antigay slur by one of his most ardent critics. Here are now the reaction, the hills joe concha, Fox News ContributorRachel Campos duffy. Merry christmas. You. Let me start with i got to be honest, it is so predictable. Im convinced of the trumps gave every person in the United States 5 million this christmas, everybody, and cured cancer, they would still criticize them. Every second, minute, hour, of every single day of the year, they cant stop it. It is their drug today. They need a fix every day. Go ahead, rachel. Im sorry. Sean rachel, go. I was just going to say, i saw on the washington post, they had a headline about your interview with melania and was all about how her poll numbers are so low. They refused to look at what she is doing and what she is saying. By the way, im surprised her poll numbers and her husbands poll numbers are holding in the 40s with how much negative, unrelenting pressch they get. Those numbers are built on revolt. What melania was talking about during the interview is right. Shes frustrated. They refused to report on the results of the administration, inand all they want to do is go negative, negative, negative. Sean i was there, i saw all these events yesterday. It is like the military lit up i cant even it was great for them. They deserve this. And still, you know what, it is so petty. They attack everybody in that family, and if they cant get russia collusion, and i was Campaign Finance. Ll they never, ever report on the other side of it, which is, all ce clinton crimes that we can prove and collusion with russia that we can prove. I tend to trust local media. I think it is strong. If you read those media accounts of melania trumps trumps visitor drawing to langley yesterday for instance, she was met with cheers and applause when she met with servicemen and women. I dont know how you could come away from your interview and say, oh, shes whining about the job. I donthe see that at all becaue im a type of guy who bases people on theirpe actions, and e bottom line is, this is the kind of gutter speculation that we see with the president as well, where we have mind readers are people playing doctor on tv in terms of trying to get in the president s head. The first lady is obviously clearly enjoying her job and shes going to places like alaska, like she did last month, to visit with the troops. She is getting horrible coverage compared to other first ladies. Her accent has been mock, we remember jimmy kimmel. English is her fifth language. Less than 1 of the worlds population, 7. 7 billion people, can speak five languages. Its kind of ironic that a latenightha host is mocking an immigrant. N no irony there. First ladies are sympathetic figures overall. Doesnt matter who you are. When you have children in the white house, whether that is melania trump, Michelle Obama, laura bush, or the clintons, criticize and mock. There is no upside to it, sean. Sean the irony is, rachel, the president s Approval Rating is exactly whereis obamas was t this time in his presidency. Thats right. Think about all the fawning press that the obamas had. They had horrible results for the country. It is shocking. I just want to say this. I dont think weve talked a lot about how Michelle Obama has gotten all these magazine covers, melania as a supermodel, former supermodel, has received none. I dont believe for a second that every single editor of those fashion magazines dont want to melania on the cover. What they are afraid of is the backlash that will happen from the gatekeepers of the left end of hollywood. They saw what happened to jimmy kimmel. Jimmy Kimmel Jimmy Kimmel treated donald trump donald trump fairly on his Show Campaign and he was ashamed anded ostracized for it because the left said you are not allowed to normalize this first lady, not allowed to normalize this president or this haesidency. And that is what this is about. Sean i will tell you this. I spent the time and saw the troops reaction. I asked her about her. She has the resolve that she is going to stay true to herself. There was a part of the interview we aired yesterday, that strength is something that everyone can learn something from. Not a republicandemocratic issue. Serving other people, making their christmas, acknowledging their sacrifice for others, is a noble thing to do. Leaving kids alone would also be a noble thing to do but the media cant control themselves. Guys, we appreciate it. Good to see you both. When we come back from a major programming announcement. I have another big interview, and we will tell you who it was with. You canun take bets now on twitter. When we get back. I need a cookbook for my best friend. Beginner or advanced . Advanced. Sweet or savory . Both. Apple strudle or spicy jammy . Strudle hows this . Perfect. Howd you do that . Its what i do. Nobody knows foodies like we do. Barnes noble. Sometimes you need an expert. I got it. And sometimes those experts need experts. On it. [ crash ] and sometimes the expert the expert needed Needs Insurance expertise. Its all good. Steve, youre covered for general liability. And, paul, we got your back with workers comp. Wow, its like a party in here. Where are the hors doeuvres, right . [ clanking ] tartlets . We cover commercial vehicles, too. I think theres something wrong with your sink. Sean we have a programming announcement. Tomorrow at 9 00 eastern will be airing our exclusive interview with u. N. Ambassador nikki haley covering a wide range of topics. North korea, russia, china, iran, peace in the middle east, saudi arabia. We hope you will set your dvr. I will say one thing. Im going to be paying very close attention tomorrow. Lieutenant general Michael Flynn, seeing comeys bragging. Wouldnt have done this in the george w. Bush administration, Obama Administration, bragging that he would take advantage and of his deputy, telling general flynn go get a lawyer. Is this how we treat veterans . All the time we have left. Thank you for being with us. Let not your heart be troubled. Laura ingraham, i cant run into the studio. Laura the swamp enjoyed having you here. We were going to do a swamp monster. We didnt get them in time. We didnt know if you could come through the wall. Great show tonight. Sean you too. If i dont see you, merry christmas. Laura merry christmas.
